	<ul>
	  <li>Digitalis started the affordable digital planetarium
	    revolution back in 2003.  We are now the leading global
	    manufacturer of these immersive simulators.</li>

	  <li>A digital planetarium allows you to travel anywhere through time and space, making spatial concepts much easier to teach.  Despite the name, you are not limited to astronomy topics.</li>
	  <li>Using a fixed or portable dome, you can create mind-expanding shared immersive experiences for entire groups&mdash;no VR goggles required!</li>

	  <li>We believe that <a href=blog-post-20190530.en.html>live, interactive teaching</a> is most effective,
	    and our systems are unmatched in this capability&mdash;we
	    developed our own <a href=products-nightshade-ng.html>simulation software</a> and <a href=interfaces.html>user interfaces</a>
	    specifically for this purpose.</li>

	  <li>A planetarium experience is a highlight of many children's educations, and can help inspire lifelong interest in STEAM.</li>

	  <li>We believe every school and community should have access to such a powerful tool
	    for exploring the universe and our place in it.</li>
